Newfoundland Food Trail | Best Local Eats

🍽️ Newfoundland Food Trail | Best Local Eats 📍 Bagel Café 🍩 Touton Heaven • What’s a Touton?: Fried bread dough (Newfoundland’s answer to donuts) • Best Way to Eat: • Fresh out the fryer (like Chinese youtiao) • Skip the molasses (too sweet) – ask for maple butter instead • Fish Cakes ($12): Salty but hearty – perfect hangover food Pro Tip: Go at 8am – they sell out by noon! 📍 Kippers Restaurant 🐟 Seafood Done Right • Must-Order: • Steamed Mussels ($16): Local PEI mussels in white wine broth • Pan-Seared Cod ($24): Crispy skin + pork scrunchions (magic combo) • Seafood Lasagna ($22): Layers of lobster, scallops, and crab (share it!) • Vibe: Dockside shack with plastic lobsters hanging from ceiling Local Secret: Ask for extra scrunchions (they’ll oblige) 📍 Gill’s Grill 👅 Cod Tongue Master • Signature Dish: Fried Cod Tongues ($14): • Texture: Crisp outside, custardy inside • Sauce: Brown butter caper sauce • Portions: Huge – fish & chips could feed two • Vibe: No-frills diner with vinyl booths Budget Hack: Daily specials under $15 (check chalkboard) 📊 Price vs. Portion Restaurant Best Deal Splurge Pick Bagel Café Touton (3) Fish Benedict (16) Kippers Fish Sandwich (14) Seafood Platter (38) Gill’s Cod Tongues (14) Lobster Poutine (24) Winner: Gill’s for value, Kippers for seafood purists 💡 Pro Tips 1. Touton Timing: Weekends = blueberry toutons 2. Scrunchion Hack: Save some for next-day eggs 3. Parking: Free at Kippers (tiny lot – arrive early) Regret: Not trying Gill’s seal flipper pie (controversial but traditional) NewfoundlandEats #FishAndScrunchions #MaritimeFood
